Mrs/ Harding does not fancy sitting in a boat in the hot sun all day long, and_spends_her part of the vacation in the seclusion of the Creager cottage, dressed in the most comfortable light clothing, dividing her time between reading, chatting with her friends and her daily siesta. Although the primitive life here is beginning to ‘tell/on some of the members of the party, most of them are roughing it with great relish. ~ - SAYS CONGRESS MUST .

There are several post officeS in Switzerland at a helght of 7,000 or more feet and a mail box on the very summit of the Languard, from- which “TYour collections. are made daily, 18 nearly 10,000 feet above the sea level. Near here'some years ago letter carriers were crushed to death by an avalanche. - In an adjacent canton, 1n the summer. of; 1863, a postman_ fell into a créyasse while crossing-a gla- cler, hls two_full. bags on his back. 'All iefforts: to; Teepvar: elther the body or the. mails were frujtless. But 34 years afterward, in 1897, the glacler cast forth: its prey many miles lower down the valley, -ang; the. long-lost let- ters were dellvered to as many of the addresses as.could be traced. Not infrequently, too, these Alpine postmen are attacked by the huge, fierce eagles that soar hungrily above the least frequented crags; Usually the, men are able:to: beat off thelr feathered assaiiants but not always. In July one year a postman who car- ried the mails on foot between the vil- lages of Sospello and Puget Thenlers was fatally mauled by three such birds, Of'two men-who attempted to avenge his death one was killed out- right.and_another injured so severely danger. 10Y IN OWNING OWN HOM!

Combustible’s Mapy Uses. ‘If the farmer can’t’ make the old horse go on straw and corncobs per- haps he can run his car, his tractor and his‘stationary engine with gas made from them. That's the problem the department. of agriculture is strug- gling with, says the ‘Nation’s Business. Already its experimenters haye run an automobile with the new combustible and used it for lighting and cooking. If the results of these tests warrant further investigation the experiments will be extended to tlie problem of plant equipment for proluclng the gas on a scale sufficlent to allow the farm- er to supply light and heat for his house, jpower for stationary engines, and possibly for-.his -tractor from- a- small indlvidual outfit. If a suitable unit ¢an be'constructed it Seems likely that the straw. gas may hdve a certain economic value In the sections of the country where the raw material from which the gas Is made is now con- ‘| sidered as waste and burned of left o rot.

" TRACE JAZZ MUSIC TO CHINA Book of Ceremonies of That Country Deals With Musical Criticism to' the Point. ! The hunt for the origin of jazz has led to the African jungle and to the musle of cannibal feasts and orgiastic dances. But;-further back it can: be traced to.the beginnings of civilization in_China itself. Confucius, who lived néarly 2,500 years ago, edited a-book . of ceremonies called the “Li Ki.” The baok -of - ceremonies was a venerable Chinese' classic:long before Confucius gave his attention to it. The savings In the “Li Ki” represent a viewpolint of: musical criticism In China which - perhaps- corresponds to the date as- signed - by ,the Jewish chronology, for. the Garden of Eden, The “Li Ki* de- scribes music as a powerful influence for good or evil, and pictures the pre- historle syncopation as follows: “The airsjof Kang go to wild ex: cess and debauch the mind; those of Sung_speak of slothful indulgencies and:of. women and submerge the mind ; those of Wej are strenuous and fast and- perplex the mind; and those of that; FEknow-T shall 4 temperament are peculiarly favorahle, "lled for futo tires, Khi are violent and depraved and make the mind arrogant. The airs of these four states all stimulate libidi- nous desire and are injurlous to; virtue.” = < ~£ not-jazz, what else falls in-with the description? Kang, Sung, Wel and Khi—all their scores have been loat. Only the monotonous drum beat which “they doubtless contributed to prehis- toric jnzz remains in modern Chinese music.—Toledo News-Bee. MOTION PICTURES IN ITALY Development of Industry In That Country Makes It Second Only to the United States. The production of motion pictures, says the United States commerce re- pert, 1s an Industry for which physi+ ol conditions in Italy and the Itallan and consequently this branch of act| vie ty early attaincd a high degree of de- velopment. Italy now claims to rank second to the United States among the nations of the world in the manu- facturing of motion pictures. An idea; of the importance of this industry In the economic life of the country can be derived from the fact that the whrk- Ing capital employed is now estimated at 300,000,000 lire and the actual capl- tal Invested at 100,000,000 lire. Thers are elghty-two companies engaged in the production of films, of which the greater number are located at Rome, which naturally presents unusual ad- vantages from the scenL‘g' standpoint. The annual production new *films fn Italy has reached 1.600,000 meters, and If it is estimated that forty coples are made from each riegative/the total of printed films Is 64,000,000 meters, ' The Navipendulum. One of the problems which paval architects have to confront is the roll- fng of a ship on the waves, and the “pavipendulum” is an Invention for dealing with it experimentally. The apparatus consists two parts: A plate to which a motion cor- responding to that of a portion of the surface of a wave is imparted, and a .pendulum of a peculiar shape which rolls upon the moving plate in the man- ner of a vessel supported by water.. The same pendulum can be made to represent different vessels of glven size and shape by adding or renfoting _artificial resistauce to the oscillatory motion. This Instrument has heen employed to study the rolling of the Itallan bat- tleships as well as those of other countries. *[BIG GAME SEASON.T0..._ OPEN ON NOVEMBER 15 Season for big game, which in- cludes deer and moose, opens-on Mon- T T R i Rubber Imports Increase. 5 A marked increase in the amount | of crude rubber Imported into this i country is’ shown by figures for the | fiscal year ended June 30, 1920, com- | plled by the National City bank of’ New York.
